Looking for access to a Dolby 'A' and DBX decoders anybody?

[TonyRPH]

As per the title, I'm looking for anyone who has access to a Dolby 'A' and DBX decoder.

I have a CD that has a really odd sound contour on it - it almost sounds like playing a Dolby encoded tape back with Dolby switched out (but slightly different) - or possibly even DBX encoded material without a DBX encoder.

So I was wondering if I could make a rip of said CD available - could somebody run a couple of tracks through the above mentioned decoders to see if it improves things?

I think it's unlikely a record company would release a CD without putting it through the correct decoding first, but stranger things have happened!!

Oh, and I have tried running it through 'sox' and applying de-emphasis - as that was my first thought - and although this improved matters - it still sounds wrong (very bright and sibilant).

For those wondering - the CD concerned is Yes - Live from house of blues.

TIA.
